I just came across this interesting rip-off report (http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/ripoff152481.htm) by former Edmontonian Nathan Fillion (whom many of you know as the star of that show (http://imdb.com/title/tt0303461/) I hates). He rags on (deservedly) the hapless staff at Warp 1.
Ever since they moved and cleaned house staff-wise the whole place has gone to @%&#. I'm glad I deal with Warp 2 exclusivly now.
Quote from: "Mr. Analog"I just came across this interesting rip-off report by former Edmontonian Nathan Fillion (whom many of you know as the star of that show I hates).
Since starting this week IMDB finally is allowing its members to rate TV series (previously it was just movies or TV pilots which are basically movies) guess what?
9.5/10 (471 votes)
Maybe this is finally the motivation for Mr. "humble popculture wizard" Analog to finally register for IMDB, so he can choose a lower ranking than "10" (which
386 members including moi gave this Whedon genre-buster ;) )
Nathan Fillion has also done some memorable guest star bits in TV as well, most noticeably (to many of the RW community anyway) as the nasty religious-collared supernatural baddy ("Caleb") in the final season of Buffy... And of course, as the abusive boyfriend-turned reformed decent human being ("Johnny") in the old sitcom "2 guys a girl and a pizza place (or one of many variant names)
Plus last month was showing a surprisingly watchable 1999 Alicia Silverstone
romcom (The Walken rulz!) and Nate played a punch-happy ex-boyfriend, which I thought was kinda funny when I recognized him.
Other Edmontonites who've made it big include Law&Order/CrossingJordan hottie Jill Hennessy, "
Gavin" (!), a
"Starfighter" lover, a
field dreamer, and some guy with Parkinson's who thinks he's a "
Lucky Man"... oh, and apparently some infamous
stoner who thinks he's actually funny (I've seen his standup act; he's not). :o
Edmonton: our greatest export is talent to the entertainment industry! ;)

PS: Any "Angel" fans who, like me, never saw any of the final season in its first run, it's been playing 3 hours per night on Space (Midnight - 3am) and the final 4 episodes are gonna be playing today and tomorrow -- 3 today and 1 tomorrow (i.e. "tuesday 9thMay morning 12:00am-3am" and "wednesday 10thMay morning 12:00am-1am" if yer setting your VCR)
